The Great Braco Bake Off

Leave a comment

Congratulations to all the children who entered our House Competition of the Great Braco Bake Off.

The standard of baking was fantastic! The children had three categories they could enter into.

Our poor judges had the difficult task of deciding who the winners would be. Congratulations to all our winners!

A big thank you to Mr Darren Campbell of Cromlix House , his Pastry Chef and the Rev Perkins- our judges! Thank you to all the parents and grandparents who also came along to hear the results and made a donation for tasting some of the delicious delights!

Community, For Parents

Book Week Scotland

Leave a comment

We have been involved in a range of activities this week for Book Week.

P6/7 have been busy asking staff about their favourite books when they were younger. They also joined up with P3/4/5 to watch the author Phil Earle in Author’s Live. P1/2 watched the author Kes Gray talk about the P2 book Quick Quack Quentin.

The children also had parents, grandparents and ex parents of the school reading to the children.

On Thursday the children could bring books along to read at a Book Lunch and today P3/4/5 read stories to Nursery and P1/2.

Thank you to everyone who came to the school and read to the children. Thank you to everyone for supporting this week by supplying books for the children to read at the Book Lunch and the pictures for the baby competitions, which were very enjoyable!

John King Visit

Leave a comment

Today we had a visit from John King, Tim Peake’s Father-in-Law.

He told us all about how Tim became an astronaut and his mission to the International Space Station. The children were then allowed to ask questions and there were lots of interesting ones asked.

Mr King also gave to us some momentoes including a signed picture of Tim Peake.

Thank you very much Mr King and to Miss Perry who arranged the visit.

Here is a link to the ISS tracker . As said in the Get Together the ISS is visible over the weekend
